It's probably an infinitesimally small number compared to how many have pirated the game worldwide.
TOTK is probably the biggest PC game in Brazil for 2023.

BECAUSE THE MASKS DIDN'T WORK!!!! AND THEY TURNED THE FROGS GAY!!!
Musk uses "piss off users".
It hurt itself in the confusion.
My dude, if you find you need to "babysit" Fedora or Ubuntu, I'm kind of doubting your tech literacy - i.e the basic level of tech literacy you need to operate macOS or Windows with.
And also, just because something is UNIX doesn't make it good. Shout outs to HPUX.
Also, Apple is tracking you on macOS and iOS, similarly to Google and Microsoft. They call it telemetry, but are you SURE they don't collect identifying information and canvas you?
Not a problem :) just answer directly next time. In any case:
It's not that they became the biggest contributors out of nowhere you know. It's not like they did it out the love in their heart and because of ideal, morals and ethics. It was seeing the writing on the wall and not wanting to be left behind. Remember both Microsoft and Oracle tried to sue various Linux distributions and the kernel maintainers themselves because they claimed that they or one of their subsidiaries had intellectual property that Linux was using - which was patantly false (pun intended).
In modern times they push to prevent moving away from GPL2 to something like GPL3 because they've already gamed the license - especially Oracle, which allows them to contribute back as little as possible, and they couldn't have done that if they weren't benefactors and members of the Linux Foundation.
Some would even say Microsoft's "embrace, expand & extinguish" tactic is still well and alive to this very day. And we're talking about the company that has a history of hidden licensing fees.
In any case, I guess SuSE is more trustworthy than all of them - again because of historical presedence. But I'm still sceptical!
In regards to Microsoft, IBM and Oracle? I'm cynnical. But it's deserved cynicism, because of the afformentioned historical presedence.
I'm not saying that people, organizations, companies, corporations, governments, multinationals, etc can't reform... buuuut... yeah. All of these companies have a horrible history of patent wars and subverting consumers, as well as open source projects. Soooo... yeeeeeaaaah...
Ah yes, the litmus test for stupidity.
Thinking thousands of independent researchers, from many different institutions, corporations, multinationals and peer review journals, in many different countries (who are friendemies and enemies with each other), who are all working in cahoots, without as much as a single legitimate whistleblower or any credible evidence that proves a massive, global coverup and the only ones who know about it are the ones who get paid for speaking engagement.
That's not just paranoia, that's not just stupidity, that is purely distilled narcecism, brined in stupidity and baked in paranoia.
A tinfoil duncehat for you, sir. You are a special somebody.
If it's a an expected country code, answer the phone.
If it's an unexpected country code, leave it alone.
Hachi Machi! He looks like Jon Lovitz if you spray painted his hair orange...
It stinks!
Uh oh. Penguin Common House is going to throw a fit that they can't resell you a book in the public domain. Maybe they should sue the Internet Archive harder and also continue to lobby against public libraries.
This is a reminder: fuck Penguin Common House. Stop buying their books.
Also, you never answered my question. You merely dismissed it.
Oracle, IBM, Microsoft. It's called market precedent. What's to prevent a major corporation owned by a venture capital company to turn around and do the same thing years down the line? What to prevent them from making this "open source community" beholden to members of the board from said corporation, similar to Fedora?
"Idk man". Conjecture can be tempered by experience. Remember that.
Who cares if you pleaded guilty? You were filmed, dumbass.
Wachu gonna do, plea the fifth?
